can u pls explain me how to answer the questions on occlusion n mandibular movements.
i m really confused..i read kaplan also for arrow diagrams
one thing i cant understand..how to answer the direction l,whether right or left.
EXAMPLE:IN ARROW DIAGRAM ,THE ARROW REPRESENT THE POSSIBLE CONTACTING AREA FOR WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING MANDIBULAR CUSPS?

MAXILLARY TEETH WITH ARROWS POINTING BUCCALLY............

1.CUSP OF CANINE,FACIAL CUSP OF1ST PM N DISTAL CUSP OF 1M
2.FACIAL CUSPS OF PMS N DISTAL CUSP OF 1M
3.FACIAL CUSPS OF PMS N MESIOBUCCAL CUSP OF 2M
4.LINGUAL CUSPS OF PMS N DISTOLINGUAL CUSP OF 1M



ANS :is 2



and how we can know the direction of mandibular movement?

whether right or left?


pls help me

I have not started DA yet but I was told that Kaplan material is pretty good for DA. I am not sure how much Decks covers.?
First of, read all the intercuspal positions during centrix occlusion +also in working and non-working movements as well.
Secondly, as far as I remember, first thing that you would have to do is to identify which arch is shown, then determine the sides (do not look at the arrows at this point), then based on the direction of arrows, determine whether the movement is working or non-working. At this time, you s'd also be able to easily eliminate most of the choices. Then, based on your knowledge about the cuspal positions in various movements, you s'd be able to answer correctly.
Dude, I am laughing out loud here but thats what it is. 🙂.

Guys, please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Its been a while since I did DA.
